Monsanto Company
Monsanto Company is a leading global provider of technology-based solutions and agricultural products that improve farm productivity and food quality. Monsanto remains focused on enabling both small-holder and large-scale farmers to produce more from their land while conserving more of our world's natural resources such as water and energy.
Monsanto has more than 4,300 St. Louis-based employees and more than 20,500 around the world.
While we share the name and the history of a company that was founded in 1901, the Monsanto of today is focused on agriculture and supporting farmers around the world in their mission to feed, clothe and fuel our growing world. We are an agricultural company. Monsanto Company was first incorporated as a subsidiary of Pharmacia in 2000, and then spun off as a separate company in 2002.
Monsanto is committed to sustainable agriculture. In June 2008, Monsanto announced its “Sustainable Yield Initiative,” which will help farmers produce more and conserve more. Between now and 2030, Monsanto will support its commitments by:
Developing improved seeds that help farmers double yields from 2000 levels for corn, soybeans and cotton. Conserving resources through developing seeds that use one-third fewer key resources per unit of output to grow crops while working to lessen habitat loss and improve water quality. Helping improve the lives of all farmers who use our products, including an additional five million people in resource-poor farm families by 2020.
